Default Hockey December releases

From what I can tell the one confirmed release is 21-22 SP Game Used on December 14th. There are conflicting reports also of 21-22 Clear Cut (Dec. 21), 21-22 SPA (Dec 30), 21-22 Premier (Dec. 30) - but the conflicting info usually means they won't actually happen, especially the Dec. 30 ones.

Two questions:
1. Is there any way to confirm what is being released? is one source better than the others?
2. What is everyone's opinion of Game Used? I've never bought in the past, but was considering this time around if the price is ok.

Thanks!
Brian

Metal Universe will be the next set release to drop after SPGU. None of those listed will be released until 2023 at the earliest and maybe only one of them will make it to shelves before March.

SPGU is imo a terrible set, but I’ll definitely be ripping one or two on my channel, but I expect after SPGU will be 21/22 Metal Universe.

Crazy we're in the 2022-23 season and still waiting on all these products. It seems like other sports aren't having this issue so UD should blame supply issues or anything else. Not having a premium product like The Cup for the rookie class from 3 years ago doesn't help the hobby either. Thanks for listing to me vent.
-Cardboardcollection is the source I use but it doesn't seem like any are reliable.
-SPGU isn't worth the money.

The Cup not being released is the biggest sore eye, especially with that set and rookie class coming into their own. I have to believe they are having difficulty get the autos of key rookies. No one would be happy if redemptions are in his product.

Key rookies in The Cup (10% ?) will always have value and be chased regardless of redemptions or not and regardless of delayed releases. The value of the product is in the other 90% of the rookies being put on the market ASAP before they are determined to be scrubs that nobody cares about anymore. And not to mention the veterans and stars in the product.
UD holding up The Cup because KK or JRob or someone else not signing is absolutely ludicrous.

Thanks everyone for the feedback! The price of SPGU was a bit high, although that's not an uncommon problem. So more than happy to sit out
